    'Neft' 'Нефть' is 'Oil' in Russian language. I thank you.

    The little ь is a soft sign, to indicate a little 'y' at the end, so 'ть' is sort of halfway between 't' and 'ch'.

    Here endeth the first lesson. We'll all be speaking Russian soon...

        considered this. Log burners are quite expensive to install. Plus you need a lot of wood to heat a 3 bed semi for a whole winter.

              Had a quick look on gov.uk and we buy no nat gas from Russia. We buy some oil (not much but some) and the main thing we buy is coal. Most of our coal comes from Russia. (USA are even importing coal from Russia due to its high quality) Though some is used for industrial coking, we burn most of the coal in our power stations. Not sure if we've sanctioned Russian coal miners yet but we'd certainly lose grid power if we did.
